Job Opportunity

We are seeking an individual to work on the project Thermally-regulated Renewable and Automated DNA Computing Devices (TRAD), funded by Research Ireland.

About the Project

The project combines theoretical and experimental approaches to develop renewable DNA computing devices that perform multiple computations in a single tube. The primary purpose is to regenerate automatically through temperature cycling and use DNA as a low-energy, sustainable medium for molecular computation and data storage.

Job Description

This role involves leading the design and modelling of thermally regulated DNA motifs and contributing to the development of an automated and renewable DNA computing prototype. You will work closely with the PI and a PhD student.

Requirements
  • PhD in a relevant field such as DNA nanotechnology, computer science, bioengineering, synthetic biology, molecular self-assembly, physics, biology, or chemistry.
  • Strong experimental skills or background in modelling and analysis of molecular computation.
  • Prior experience with DNA strand design or molecular computing is desirable.
Benefits
  • Salary: €46,305 per annum (1 point, with increment)
  • Opportunity to work on a cutting-edge project
  • Collaborative team environment
What We Offer

We are seeking an individual who takes initiative, explores new ideas, and is eager to push the boundaries of renewable molecular computing. If you have strong skills in molecular computation and are looking for a challenging opportunity, please apply.
